The Catholic Church in Haiti (Greater Antilles) consists only of a Latin hierarchy,
joint in the national Episcopal Conference of Haiti, comprising two ecclesiastical provinces, each headed by a Metropolitan Archbishop, with a total of eight suffragan dioceses, each headed by a bishop.

There are no Eastern Catholic, pre-diocesan or other exempt jurisdictions.

There are no titular sees. All defunct jurisdictions have current successor sees.

There is an Apostolic Nunciature to Haiti as papal diplomatic representation (embassy-level) in the national capital Port-au-Prince.
